Diatomite/Diatomite Beer Industry Filter Aid Beer Filtration DE Filter Media

Solid-liquid separation or solid-liquid separation (SLS) is one of the most widely used operations in industrial processing. Depending on the final product, the required material can be liquid or solid.

Diatomaceous earth filter aids are lightweight, chemically inert, and form a high porosity filter cake to maintain free flow of liquids. Specifically, an efficient filter aid has the following characteristics:

The particles must be structured so that they do not pack tightly together, but form a cake with 85% to 95% pore space. This not only allows for higher initial flow rates, but also provides pore space to capture and contain filterable solids, while leaving a high percentage of channels open for flow.

 

Use of diatomaceous earth filter aid:
1. Condiments: monosodium glutamate, soybean, vinegar, salad oil, rapeseed oil, etc.
2. Beverages: beer, rat fee, rice wine, fruit juice, wine, syrup drinks, etc.
3. Medicine: antibiotics, vitamins, Chinese medicine refining, dental fillings, cosmetics, etc.
4. Chemical products: organic acid, inorganic acid, alkyd, paint, vinyl resin, etc.
5. Industrial oil products: lubricating oil, lubricating oil additives, petroleum additives, metal flake oil, transformer oil, coal tar, etc.
6. Water treatment: daily waste water, industrial waste water, effluent treatment, swimming pool water, etc.
7. Sugar industry: fructose syrup, glucose, starch sugar, sucrose, etc.

Application Instructions:

1. preliminary inspection: Visually inspect filter elements (especially in spring) as torn or improperly installed elements or fabric can cause problems, while dirty or clogged elements can reduce water flow and result in short cycles.
2. pre-painted: This procedure is used to apply a thin layer of DE to the filter element.
   1. Mix the appropriate amount of CD080 filter aid (depending on package instructions and filter manufacturer's instructions) with water in a bucket to form a slurry.
   2. Apply directly to the pool skimmer.
3. Backwashing and cleaning: Backwashing DE filters involves reverse flow and/or manual flushing of filter elements. Proper maintenance and thorough cleaning of the filter is necessary for good filtration.
